Sweet Dave!!! Canít wait!!!! Glad u can make it. Again for people staying out of town I will provide my basement. It is finished and carpeted. One bed available. Bring air mattresses and sleeping bags if u want to stay he night. We can play mage wars Friday or Sunday as well. I will set up some tables and chairs.

I am planning on making it. might take you up on the offer for the space too. we can decide as we get closer. dave and I can carpool over. I think also may bring another too. will keep you up to date as I know more.

The Hawthorn Suites are located at 101 Trade Center Drive, Champaign, IL 61820, and can be reached by phone at (217) 398-3400. Mention that you are attending Winter War to learn about the convention room discount! This is the location of the event.

There are lots of other hotels in town though for booking rooms if needed. According to the Winter War website, Hotel UpdateThe Hawthorne Suites are still undergoing renovation, but will be ready for us in time for the convention, so no worries there. They don't currently have a website for you to book through, so if you want to reserve your room, please make sure to call them. You can find the phone number listed below.

I thought that it was becoming a Holiday Inn though. I'm not 100% confident that it is still Hawthorne Suites, It shows up on IHG (which is Holiday Inn I think). I talked to Susan though (one of the organizers) and the number is supposed to work for reservations at least.
